Tools and Execution Platform for Mission Critical AIIntroducing a new Analytics Workbench, FICO now offers a robust analytic development tool that was built from the ground up to be fully integrated with the decision platform. With the FICO® Analytics Workbench, both business users and data scientists have access to sophisticated yet easy-to-use data exploration, visual data wrangling, decision strategy design and machine learning. The Analytics Workbench effectively bridges techniques such as decision tree and scorecards with ML, offering the best of both worlds. Analytics Workbench offers an explainable AI toolkit that enables organization to validate and interpret models, as well as individual model executions.

The Analytics Workbench has been purposely designed for a wide variety of users with varied skillsets to work together within the same solution environment to inform and enrich strategic decision-making. Business analysts will appreciate the simple pathways for exploring and modeling data, while data scientists will value the analytic notebook and its array of popular data science languages. With an intuitive user interface, users can expect faster time-to-value, higher levels of productivity and significant business improvements through analytically powered decisions.

Analytics Workbench is supported by ML model execution on the FICO® Decision Management Platform (DMP). Model execution on DMP supports common ML libraries, as well as FICO's differentiated models for anomaly detection.

"Enterprises are eager to transform their business to be analytic and AI driven," said Koister. "The effort to develop, deploy and improve such solutions for mission critical applications is complicated. With a broad range of new products and capabilities DMS provides a path to help businesses transform and take advantage of AI, ML and optimization efficiently, while maintaining focus on their business problems and value add."
